By Whose Teeth

To perceive wrongness
Wrong, deformity
Disorder

There must be
A measure — metric —
Against which

The wrong is perceived

The dentist
Hygienist — cannot
See calculus, tar
As wrong —

Without knowing
Seeing
Untarred, uncalculused
Teeth

The metric must
Conform
To like
For the like

Teeth
For teeth

Bone for bone
Heart for heart

But what if
The metric —
The measure against which
What is perceived

Is political
Social
Cultural
Linguistic

Economical

That
Is psychiatry
